Tricolored Herons, page 2

Photography is about subject and about light...
The pictures of these individuals were taken during the 3d week of May 2008, with the same camera
and lens, at two different
locations in SW Florida.
Due to a warm afternoon glow the lower image shows
a maximum of tri-color, almost to the point of unreal.

The upper appears to be
a male in breeding plumage, while the one below could
be a female in its loud
breeding colors.
